Supreme Phenomenon of Human Birth – The Celebration of Lord Krishna
Supreme Phenomenon of Human Birth – The Celebration of Lord KrishnaSupreme Phenomenon of Human Birth – The Celebration of Lord Krishna. The Power of Creation is directly experienced by holding your own baby.
A child is a ‘Supreme Phenomenon’; not even the father, nor the mother can surpass it. There is nothing more sublime than the living touch of your own baby. You can experience the ‘Power of Creation’ by simply holding your baby.
SUPREME PHENOMENON
Supreme Phenomenon of Human Birth – The Celebration of Lord Krishna. SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE KNOWER-THE KNOWING-SELF: MAN, THE ENTIRE HUMAN ORGANISM IS DERIVED FROM A SINGLE FERTILIZED EGG CELL . HOW IS THE IDENTITY AND INDIVIDUALITY IS ESTABLISHED AND IS KNOWN IN THIS COMPLEX MULTICELLULAR ORGANISM?
By R. Suryanarayana Murthy
I saw thee dragging thy feet up the stairs
Making me watch every movement of thine
Step by step, you steadied up,
Thy broad smile hiding all thy effort
What angel pushes thee up no eye can see.
I saw thee stretching, hugging the mother earth,
Rising and falling while crawling all the way;
All to thyself, no pitfall to frighten thee,
Nor danger lurking can stop thee going
And when the journey was finished there is that glow
“Who can beat me in the race?” thy challenge goes out
Thou art the victor in all such deeds.
Thou wert the star attraction of all ages,
Napoleon acclaiming thee as the greatest of all creation;
Saintly Gandhi hugged thee to press his lips on thine
“Chacha” Nehru crawled by thy side forgetting his power and pomp;
Can the royal throne or sceptred sway provide anything equal to thee?
Thou hast remained through ages humanity’s main hope in a naughty world.
Why did the Buddha see in thy birth unredeemed sorrow and suffering?
Why was it that Jesus saw in thy advent the gnawing pain of unsullied sin?
Or why was it the great Sankara said that thy emergence was enveloped in ‘Maya’ or illusion?
Thou did confound every philosopher and kept to thyself the mystery surrounding thy species
Thou an enigma and a riddle proclaiming the unanswerable divine will.
Still the world all over rejoices in thee and gives thee royal welcome
Without thee life is a desert with no flower to bloom,
Without thee the sweetest of poetry finds no place in heart
Thou art the greatest messenger of love
And give thy message to everybody, “Love thy neighbour as thou lovest thy child,
And see in every person a latent child
And discard all hatred that corrodes the soul.”
What more sublime is there than thy living touch
What greater joy is there than thy winning smile?
For me thou art a Supreme Phenomenon
With none to surpass not even the father, nor the mother.

Supreme Phenomenon of Human Birth – The Celebration of Lord Krishna
Whole Dude – Whole Designer – The Master Planner is still at Work: The Rudi Connection at Whole Foods describes the concept of Whole Designer
Yes Indeed, Life is Complicated. The complexity of Life involves the complex nature of the designing of the Living Things and as the Master Planner is still at Work, man gets the opportunity to visualize the artistic scheme of the World in which he exists.
Whole Dude – Whole Designer: The Cuckoo of India called “KOEL”, Eudynamys scolopacea . I only want to be heard and I do not want to be seen. I speak about the relation between sound and echo, the song and the singer, the Creator, and the created.
What it is to be a Substance? and What it is to Exist? We need to establish knowledge about the man and the world on a firm basis and the information it provides must be tested for its accuracy and consistency with an external reality. We have to make the fundamental distinction between the living and the non-living matter. The scientific advances of the 19th and 20th centuries reinforced the materialistic position concerning the basic similarity of organic living and inorganic physical matter. The man is viewed as a product of natural evolution and is thought to be subject to the same laws of Physics and Chemistry or mechanistic principles without the operation of any creative mechanism.
I speak about the relation between sound and echo, the song and the singer, the Creator, and the created.
The Rudi Connection at Whole Foods describes the concept of Whole Designer. I speak about the relation between sound and echo, the song and the singer, the Creator, and the created.
I use the method of ‘Applied Philosophy’ to analyze the concept of Spiritual Optics, the Spiritual dimension of biological coloration andto explain the concept of Whole Designer.
What is Color and What is Coloration?
The Rudi Connection at Whole Foods describes the concept of Whole Designer. What is Color? What is Coloration? I speak about the relation between sound and echo, the song and the singer, the Creator, and the created.
The term ‘color’ refers to the spectral qualities of emitted or reflected light. The term ‘coloration’ is a dynamic and complex characteristic that has captured human interest and attention for a long time. The human interest to coloration ranges from purely aesthetic to the rigidly pragmatic.
Biological Coloration:
The Rudi Connection at Whole Foods describes the concept of Whole Designer. I speak about the relation between sound and echo, the song and the singer, the Creator, and the created.
Biological Coloration refers to the general appearance of an organism as determined by the quality and quantity of light that is reflected or emitted from its surface. This Coloration depends upon several factors:
1. The integrity and deployment of the structural units and features involved in the generation of color,
2. The color and distribution of the organism’s pigments, and the relative location of differently colored areas,
3. The shape, posture, position, and movement of the organism,
4. The quality and quantity of light striking the organism, including the seasonal light and temperature variations,
5. The psychological, behavioral, hormonal, and other physiological conditions associated with the use of color,
6. The visual capacity of the viewer.
The comprehensive understanding of biological coloration demands a study of Physics, Chemistry, Physiology, Biology, Psychology and other subjects.

The visual, sensory experience of this color is a dynamic, complex event.
The term design means to make a plan, a pattern, or outline and carry out the execution by artistic arrangement in a skillful way. To produce an artistic unit, the designer will arrange the parts; details of form, color, etc., to fit into the artful scheme. Unlike an artist, the Whole Designer creates the whole scene using own imaginative power. Earth is in existence for a very long time. I invite my readers to reflect upon the designing of some of the living things which are recognized for their longevity.

Who is the Artist? Who is the Designer?
The Designing of the Living Things. The Concept of Whole Designer.Who is the Artist? Who is the Designer? An artist uses colors with imagination to create forms and to generate a desired visual effect. A “Whole Artist” is a person who creates his own canvas, his own tools, his own pigments, and creates the desired visual effects while the forms that are created have no such creative and cognitive abilities.
No single function can explain the coloration of living things. We need a comprehensive theory that predicts the lines and patterns of coloration of plants and animals. An artist’s palette containing only three properly chosen colors is entirely adequate under most circumstances to produce the various visual effects of color that is observed. The optical mechanisms involved in the production of color are complex. Coloration is a dynamic and complex characteristic and the term must be clearly distinguished from the term ‘color’ which only refers to the spectral qualities of emitted or reflected light.
WholeDude – Whole Artist : Chilean Mimulus flowers. Mimulus luteus. Who is the artist that caused this visual effect?
It is apparent that plants, and animals have no cognitive abilities to produce the coloration by which they are recognized. However, the coloration displayed gives us a clue about the nature of the “Whole Artist” who could be using imagination, has feelings for the forms created and seeks satisfaction from the visual effects that he produced. If man has the ability called visual perception, he must use the ability to visualize the “Whole Artist” who is at work. I ask my readers to give attention to the three dimensions of Color Perception. These are, 1. The Designer or the Artist, 2. The Object of Perception, and 3. The visual capacity of the Viewer.

Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: Lord Krishna, the Divine Supreme Being arrived in this Physical, Material World as a newborn, human baby, a Spiritual Being. Man always arrives as a Spiritual Being and Spiritualism is not a Learned or Acquired Knowledge.Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – ESSENCE – IDENTITY – UNITY – EXISTENCE: THE NEWBORN BABY ALWAYS ARRIVES INTO THE WORLD WITH AN ORIGINAL, UNIQUE, DISTINCT, AND ONE OF ITS OWN KIND OF GENOME THAT HAS NEVER EXISTED IN THE PAST AND WILL NEVER EXIST AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
The Theory of Evolution has no relevance to the ultimate identity of each individual member of a given species. This identity is dictated by the interplay between the various components of each individual cell and its interactions with other cells. With the same genomes or different genomes, the living entities can only exist as individuals and they have no other choice. The evolutionary connections are not relevant to this identity. To understand the phenomenon of biodiversity, we will be forced to look at each individual member of each given species.
WHOLE DUDE – WHOLE CREATIONISM: The term “WholeChrist” refers to Jesus before His human birth, during His earthly existence, after His Resurrection, and to the promise of His Second Coming. The term “WholeLove” describes God’s Unconditioned Love that is not determined by human knowledge and rationality. The Birth of Jesus cannot be accounted by human knowledge and rationality.
Creation and Conservation:
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: I coined the phrase Whole Creationism to avoid making the distinction between Creation and Conservation of Life on Earth
First published Thu Nov 9, 2017; substantive revision Tue Mar 8, 2022
In the philosophy of religion, creation is the action by which God brings an object into existence, while conservation is the action by which God maintains the existence of an object over time. The major monotheisms unambiguously affirm that God both created the world and conserves it. It is less clear, however, whether creation and conservation are to be conceived as distinct kinds of actions.
On the predominant traditional view, conservation is continuous creation. Adherents of this view typically say with Francisco Suárez that God’s creation and conservation of things are “only conceptually distinct” (Suárez 1597, 120). Jonathan Edwards, for example, says, “God’s upholding created substance, or causing its existence in each successive moment, is altogether equivalent to an immediate production out of nothing, at each moment…. So that this effect differs not at all from the first creation, but only circumstantially…” (Edwards 1758, 402). In other words, there is no real difference between the act of creation and the act of conservation, though different words may be used for them. Descartes, Malebranche, Leibniz, and Berkeley all express similar views. More recently, Philip Quinn likewise treats both God’s creating and God’s conserving as species of bringing about a thing’s existence. We call the act ‘creation’ if it occurs at the first time at which the creature exists, and we call it ‘conservation’ if it occurs at a later time, but the action is the same (e.g., Quinn 1988, 54).
Creation – Creationism – Whole Creationism:
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – MAN IS A SPIRITUAL BEING: HUMAN BIRTH IS A DIVINE PHENOMENON. THE NEWBORN ALWAYS ARRIVES IN THE WORLD AS AN ORIGINAL, UNIQUE, DISTINCTIVE, AND ONE OF ITS OWN OBJECT WITH A GENOME THAT NEVER EXISTED IN THE PAST AND WILL NOT AGAIN EXIST IN THE FUTURE.
Creation is defined as to make or bring into existence an object, something new, original, one of its kind, unique, and distinctive. and to produce an object through imaginative skill or inspiration. As per the Theory of Creation, the natural world in which we exist is the physical manifestation of an act of Creation.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: In humans, the egg and sperm cells are formed through a particular kind of cell division called meiosis where the genetic material of the parent cell is divided up twice, resulting in these haploid cells with only one set of chromosomes. This is a creative mechanism to produce original objects of one of its own kind.
I coined the phrase Whole Creationism to avoid making the distinction between the original act of creating life and its sustenance over a period of time. Both Creation and Conservation of Life deploy the same creative mechanisms such as Meiosis and Photosynthesis in the creation and maintenance of the energy dependent Living Systems.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: Human Birth in the past, in the present, and in future will always happen as an act of Creation. It is a Divine Phenomenon. This Individuality has existed before in the past, exists in the present time, and would not cease from its existence and would continue to exist in the future. Man exists in nature as a Created Being and his Individuality remains unchanged during the entire process of Life’s Journey during the different stages of its existence.
The Law of Individuality:
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: The Law of Individuality governs all Individual Living Things. A colony of genetically identical or cloned E. coli bacteria is actually a mob of individuals.
I propose the Law of Individuality which governs all the living entities. Either with the same and identical genome or with different genomes, all living organisms have no choice other than that of living as ‘Individuals’. The genes and the genetic codes function in accordance with the Law of Individuality. While the genetic structural organization is the same, there is functional variability due to factors over which the organism has no control. I describe Individuality as a Trade Mark. It is the characteristic of a biological entity. Genes and the genetic codes are the tools that an organism uses to express its Individuality. Each organism assembles its own kind of protein molecules to define its identity and to defend its existence in the natural world.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: Individuality and the Genome. The Law of Individuality formulates the phenomenon of Human Individuality.
The concept of Biological Individual and Individuality has to be always defined in the context of the Individual’s relationship with its own Body, Social Group, Society, Time, and the Environment in which the Individual finds the reality of its own Existence.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: The Law of Individuality leaves the Individual with no choice other than that of expressing variability while being a member of a Social Group which may have a fixed Identity which is often used to avoid the very complex and practically incomprehensible issue of biodiversity in terms of individualistic variations displayed by each living cell and living thing.
What is Identity and What is Individuality?
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: A brief glance at the face is enough for most people to identify one another. Face recognition is a basic feature of human identity and recognition.
A brief glance at the face is enough for most people to identify one another. However, man does not exist with the same identity during the course of his life. The word identity describes the condition or fact of being a specific person. Identification is the process by which a person can be identified in an accurate and consistent manner. The morphological or the external appearance of a person is subject to constant changes and it differs in a significant manner during the various stages of life such as infancy, boyhood, adulthood, and old age.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: If Identity described by the Phenotype establishes one face of the Coin, the Individuality describes the second face of the same coin and is established by the Genotype. While being the same, the Genotype presents the Individual with varying features of identification.
The term individuality describes the sum of the characteristics or qualities that set one person apart from others. The condition of being individual, or different from others establishes the indivisibility of man. Man is unique, original, one kind of person who has not existed before and would not also exist in future even when he shares the same identical genome. Two identical twins could be correctly identified as two different individuals.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: Individuality and the Genome. The phenomenon of Diversity must be studied beyond the realm of genes, genetic codes, and genomes. Cytoplasm and its organs must be studied to understand the physiological basis of Diversity.
I propose the Law of Individuality and Creation which claims that man exists as Individual and has no choice over his conditioned nature of subjective physical existence in the world. Man can only exist as Individual with Individuality.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: The Divine Phenomenon – A child always comes into existence as a created object even when it derives its life from a Mother Cell.
Man describes his identity in terms of his personal name, age, gender, race, ethnicity, place of origin, language, religion, political, occupational, or social affiliation. In reality, the man is an association of trillions of individual cells and each cell lives as an individual with individuality.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: Individuality and the Genome. The Law of Individuality formulates the phenomenon of Human Individuality.
People all over the world directly experience the natural phenomenon of Creation. Creation is not merely a past event. Creation is an observable phenomenon of our present times. Creation is a phenomenon that would repeat and perpetuate itself as long as planet Earth exists and the Cosmic Balance, the Cosmic Harmony, and the Cosmic Connection prevails. The reality of Creation gets revealed by its own nature. Creation is a self-evident Truth.
Whole Dude – Whole Creationism: The Power of Creation imparts the sense of Joy which can be simply experienced by holding your own baby.
Creation refers to the beginning of things. The ideas and thoughts about creation serve as a basis for the orientation of man in the world and help to specify man’s place in the physical universe. The Doctrine of Creation is the basis to explain man’s status in nature. The act of creation involves to bring into being a new product and the production of the new thing requires application of imagination and the use of Power/Force/Energy. Creation has two aspects; 1. Freedom of Mind to imagine possibilities. It is associated with a power called ‘Inspiration’ that provides the stimulus to both creative thought and action, and 2. Freedom of Action that converts a mental ‘possibility’ into a physical ‘actuality’. The word ‘creative’ is often used to describe the quality or power of creating as seen in the actions of an author, actor, fashion designer, artist, or musician. A created object tends to be original, unique, distinctive, and exists as one of its own kind of object.
THE ORIGIN OF MAN – THE STATUS OF MAN:
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE DOCTRINE OF CREATION: SOCRATES – “KNOW THYSELF, AND YOU WILL KNOW THE UNIVERSE AND THE GODS.”
There are three primary orders to describe the things that exist in the physical universe, and these are 1. God, 2. Soul, and 3. Matter. There is general disagreement about the existence of God and Soul and such disagreements need not impair our understanding of ‘Matter’. Man must understand what it is to be a substance and what it is to exist. Socrates had famously stated: “The unexamined life is not worth living.” Man has to know the truth about himself.
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE DOCTRINE OF CREATION: ARISTOTLE, THE FATHER OF SCIENCE – “THERE IS A SCIENCE WHICH INVESTIGATES BEING AS BEING AND THE ATTRIBUTES WHICH BELONG TO BEING IN VIRTUE OF ITS OWN NATURE.”
Science not only provides the knowledge that something is true, but also the reason why it is true. Aristotle in his treatise ‘ON THE SOUL’ stated, “To attain any assured knowledge about the soul is one of the most difficult things in the world.” At the same time, he suggested that the inquiry into the soul must extend beyond man to all living things. In his view, “The study of soul falls within the Science of Nature.” If God and Soul are difficult things to investigate, it is proper to investigate about man by seeking better understanding of ‘Matter’.
WHAT IS MATTER?
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE DOCTRINE OF CREATION: WHAT IS MATTER??? MATTER IS AN INDISPENSABLE FACTOR IN THE CONSTITUTION OF ALL PHYSICAL THINGS.
Matter is the whole substance of bodies. Matter is associated with the idea of quantity, the basic magnitudes such as mass, space, and time. That which is or has matter in it necessarily occupies space. If matter is divided into two kinds, sensible and insensible, it must be mentioned that the entire substance of sensible bodies consist of matter. It is matter which gives actuality to sensible bodies. Sensible bodies derive their being and all their attributes from the forms which matter assumes when its potentialities are actualized. Hence, matter is an indispensable factor in the constitution of all physical, living things. Man is constituted by physical matter but his Identity and Individuality must be carefully understood. While Identity describes one-side of the coin, Individuality describes the second-side of the same coin. The outward appearance of an organism is called ‘Phenotype’. In case of man, the same individual shows different phenotypes in childhood, in adulthood, and in old age. The ‘Genotype’, on the other hand does not change during an individual’s life. While the phenotype is undergoing constant changes under the influence of time, and environment, man retains the experience of his identity in a relatively constant manner and hence always exists as an Individual with Individuality. The Doctrine of Creation, or The Law of Creation gives no choice, and there is no alternative and man is always born as a specific Individual who exists with Individuality.
THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION – THE DESCENT OF MAN:
SPIRITUALITY SCIENCE – THE DOCTRINE OF CREATION: CHARLES DARWIN(1809-92), A GREAT NATURAL SCIENTIST, IN HIS WORKS, THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES(1859), AND THE DESCENT OF MAN(1871) PROPOSED THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION TO DESCRIBE THE ORIGIN OF MAN.
Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution is very interesting and it shares valid information based upon accurate observations. However, the concern is about the reasoning that was applied to explain as to why a thing is said to be true. What is the truth and reality of Evolution? What is the reasoning to explain Evolution as a fact or truth? Firstly, as Aristotle had correctly observed, it must be noted that “Form has no separate existence but is immanent in matter.” It should not escape our attention, and we must acknowledge that one undivided, imperishable substance is seen within all diverse living entities. For all practical purposes, there is no ‘Evolution’ as all of the diverse, living entities consist of the same kind of living matter, material, or substance. Material substances undergo changes when they interact with other material substances but, I would not describe the ‘change’ as the permanent reality. In my view, the permanent reality is described by the unchanging nature of chemical elements or molecules in spite of their tendency to interact with other chemical elements or molecules. For example, the water molecule is in existence for over several billions of years without any fundamental change in its basic constitution and behavior. Similarly, all the chemical elements that combine to form the living matter, substance or material have retained their original nature and there is no ‘Evolution’ in their chemical interactions. The Theory of Evolution describes just one-side of the story and claims that ‘forms’ evolve and change under the influence of time and environment. At a fundamental level, the Theory of Evolution fails to explain the biological basis for the existence of any given living form. At no time in the entire Natural History, a living form has displayed any ability to exist without deriving support from its living matter. In other words, DNA that constitutes the Phenotype and the Genotype of any given living thing has no independent existence of its own. To explain the basis for existence, the Theory of Evolution may have to answer the following questions:
1. What is it existing?
2. Who is it existing?
3. Where is it existing?
4. When is it existing? and,
5. Why is it existing?
If man answers the above questions, man would easily understand that he is existing on planet Earth since about the last 10,000 years and in Geological Science this Time Period is called ‘HOLOCENE EPOCH’. In conclusion, it may be acknowledged that the Universe is vast and man’s role in it is insignificant. Man’s great need is not only to know the world around him but also to know himself better and for this man has to understand the truth and reliability of his own cognitive powers. The Doctrine of Creation could be stated as, “The reality called existence is established by the Unchanging Spiritual Nature of Matter in a constantly Changing World.”
